Playstation All-Stars Battle Royale will no doubt be a major success for the Playstation 3.
However, unlike Nintendo's diverse list of mascots Sony's has been developed by a number of different developers over the course of two decades. For those unfamiliar with the characters, Latinos Post is providing the latest news on each character as well as in-depth reports on their histories, move sets, and super attacks.
The beta version was recently launched on the PS3 and Vita for PS Plus Subscribers enabling players to try the game out. Among the characters available in the beta were Kratos, Parappa, Fat Princess, Sweet Tooth, Colonel Radec, and Sly Cooper.
Nathan Drake is one of the more popular characters in recent years and despite not being available for play on the beta, his moves have already been revealed.
